Not Forever, But For Now by Chuck Palahniuk
Not Forever, But For Now by Chuck Palahniuk My rating: 4 of 5 stars Yet another Chuck book–funny, clever, insightful, but a bit of a one-trick pony. Language is clever, writing is crisp, and critique is strong, but it somehow feels like more of the same. I dream of a mature Chuck book at some…
